Geometry and arithmetic of crystallographic sphere packings

A Kontorovich, K Nakamura - Proceedings of the National …, 2019 - National Acad Sciences
We introduce the notion of a “crystallographic sphere packing,” defined to be one whose
limit set is that of a geometrically finite hyperbolic reflection group in one higher dimension …

Imaginary cones and limit roots of infinite Coxeter groups

M Dyer, C Hohlweg, V Ripoll - Mathematische Zeitschrift, 2016 - Springer
Let (W, S) be an infinite Coxeter system. To each geometric representation of W is
associated a root system. While a root system lives in the positive side of the isotropic cone …

Coxeter group in Hilbert geometry

L Marquis - Groups, Geometry, and Dynamics, 2017 - ems.press
A theorem of Tits and Vinberg allows to build an action of a Coxeter group on a properly
convex open set of the real projective space, thanks to the data P of a polytope and re ection …

Visualizing hyperbolic honeycombs

R Nelson, H Segerman - Journal of Mathematics and the Arts, 2017 - Taylor & Francis
We explore visual representations of tilings corresponding to Schläfli symbols. In three
dimensions, we call these tilings 'honeycombs'. Schläfli symbols encode, in a very efficient …

Apollonian ball packings and stacked polytopes

H Chen - Discrete & Computational Geometry, 2016 - Springer
We investigate in this paper the relation between Apollonian d-ball packings and stacked
(d+ 1)(d+ 1)-polytopes for dimension d ≥ 3 d≥ 3. For d= 3 d= 3, the relation is fully …

Ball packings for links

JLR Alfonsín, I Rasskin - European Journal of Combinatorics, 2021 - Elsevier
The ball number of a link L, denoted by ball (L), is the minimum number of solid balls (not
necessarily of the same size) needed to realize a necklace representing L. In this paper, we …

[HTML][HTML] Scribability problems for polytopes

H Chen, A Padrol - European Journal of Combinatorics, 2017 - Elsevier
In this paper we study various scribability problems for polytopes. We begin with the
classical k-scribability problem proposed by Steiner and generalized by Schulte, which asks …

Deformation spaces of Coxeter truncation polytopes

S Choi, GS Lee, L Marquis - Journal of the London …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract A convex polytope PP in the real projective space with reflections in the facets of PP
is a Coxeter polytope if the reflections generate a subgroup Γ Γ of the group of projective …

Ford Spheres in the Clifford-Bianchi Setting

S Backman, T Dupuy, A Hilado, V Potter - arXiv preprint arXiv:2409.20529, 2024 - arxiv.org
We define Ford Spheres $\mathcal {P} $ in hyperbolic $ n $-space associated to Clifford-
Bianchi groups $ PSL_2 (O) $ for $ O $ orders in rational Clifford algebras associated to …
